Posting this here after bringing it up in the wilco thread. My god is this a great song. Recorded in an empty dance hall in 1973 and it sounds like it. The way it slowly builds up feels like the saddest campfire singalong ever, and what is going on with those creepy bells in the background before the band kicks in? I love how offsetting it is before the chorus brings you back to earth.
There really isn't a genre better suited than country music to give us a such a heartfelt song about generations of death by tractor or car accidents.
Love these lines
If I took a rollin' wheel And rolled it ten times 'round Would it travel far from here? Would it just go 'round? 'Round and 'round?

i trusted your tastes enough to give this a listen.
at first, i was like...hold up...this was recorded in a dance hall? nah...sounds incredible. i love it.
his vocals lay perfectly across this. and i love the plinking keys in it. how is this not in a studio? i've listened on my new powerbeats pros (sorry losers), and my home shelf speakers. it sounds like i'm in the room with the band.
i have to admit, i'd never heard of Jerry Jeff Walker until your post. i have a very limited knowledge/background of country music. i mean...i grew up in new england and wasn't exactly fed even a decent helping of it. i knew of guys like willie and roy clark, etc, but by the time i had heard a country song, it was more like a pop song than anything else. i just can't do poppy/boring ass country.
this though...this is a goddamn country song. i even listened to London Homesick Blues, which follows Wheel on that album, and that one is great too.
i want to sit on my back porch, drink some beers and listen to JJW.

Do yourself a favor and check out that whole album. Then afterwards seek out some Ray Wiley Hubbard

:thumbs up:
"Up Against the Wall Redneck Mother" from that JJW albums is a Ray Wiley song. You can hear RWH's version on an album called Live at Cibolo Creek Country Club, which is an album I'd recommend as a good starting point.

I get all that. Also, I got a heavy "Last Kiss" vibe.

Does anyone know if Luke Combs is legit? Like does he write his own songs, or is he the Taylor Swift of country music?
It's hard for me to tell because he is definitely not a pretty face. He's not your typical no-talent shitstain thrown out there purely due to sex appeal. I like his voice.
For comparison I get the impression that Chris Stapleton is much more "legit" as an artist. I just can't tell if Luke Combs is respectable like that.
I find myself enjoying many of his songs (not all), but I don't know if I should feel embarrassed about this or not.
I’ve yet to find a definitive answer to this and at this point I don’t care. I love him.

This is good stuff. I can't see Jeff Tweedy not liking it.
